PULSE operators

Commercial overhead doors, whether sectional or rolling steel, require substantial energy to operate. This constant mechanical demand places considerable stress on door operators, potentially increasing wear and impacting performance over time.

PULSE operators from iControls mitigate this issue with integrated “Soft Start, Soft Stop” functionality, engineered to optimize motion control and extend component longevity.

How It Works
When the operator begins to open the door, it moves at a slower speed for a preset distance. After this gradual “soft” start, it accelerates to the selected operating speed. As the door approaches the end of its cycle, it slows again for a preset distance before coming to a full stop. The same process occurs, in reverse, during the closing cycle.

Operational Benefit
This feature minimizes mechanical shock, reducing stress on drive systems and structural hardware. Over time, it helps preserve operational integrity, decrease maintenance intervals and improve door responsiveness.

For our Canadian friends, be sure to visit the iControls booth (#102) at the Canadian Door Institute (CDI) Trade Show from May 27 to May 29 at the Blue Mountain Village Conference Centre in Blue Mountains, Ontario.

We’ll be showcasing our state-of-the-art PULSE line of door operators, including the dock door-specific pre-wired PULSE 100, the sleek and residential-approved PULSE 200 and our powerhouse flagship, the PULSE 300.

We’re also thrilled to preview the all-new, highly versatile PULSE 400: The latest innovation in our PULSE line. It features universal input voltage from 208V to 600V AC, programmable RPM speed setting and is designed for springless door applications.

If you’re attending the CDI Trade Show, be sure to stop by booth 102 and say hi. We look forward to seeing you there!

We are excited to unveil a fresh new look for our marketing material!
